re: #838 Walter L. Newton

Programmer of over 25 years. But not now, I’m 56, to old, at least that’s what the recruiters tell me. Now I actually work at a live professional theatre, production manager. Theatre is sort of my backup, of course, theatre also pays me 1/4 less than what I was making as a programmer. But, it pays the bills.

Nothing has happened in my world to open up my chances at a full time programming job. Over 50 white professional males must not have been a line item in the stimulus bill.

They’re fools. You could probably school most of my friends.
